Title: Unable to examine host error message using Netvault replicator
Date: 01/2008
NV Version: NVR 5.1
OS Version: Linux Red Hat Enterprise 4.0
Application version: N/A
Plugin version: N/A
Description: During Replications from a Source Server to a Destination Server we witness error messages;
Symptoms: Error messages occurring are;
Processing remote systems:
Examining remote host <Ip address/hostname>
Unable to examine host <Ip address/hostname>
First thing to check is to be sure that the Servers can talk to one another. We verified that the Servers can see each other by host and Ip address.
The problem in this case was that the customer was not using nvr_pushconfig. He was manually entering the nvrconfig info. Once he used nvr_pushconfig and re-ran the Replication job once again from Source to Destination Servers it completed successfully.
The Netvault Replicator Documentation states to use nvr_pushconfig.
